I. STATEMENT OF WORK

A. INTENT

The intent of this Request for Pre-Qualification (RFPQ) is to identify qualified Bidders interested in providing Eating Disorder (ED) treatment services through a pool of contractors. Alameda County Behavioral Health Department (hereafter referred to as ACBHD or County) will identify and refer clients as having an ED and not successfully managing their symptoms through outpatient treatment with existing ACBHD outpatient providers or needing a higher level of care outside of ACBHD. Through this RFPQ, ACBHD seeks specialized ED treatment services, and not standard mental health outpatient service providers with a focus on eating disorders.

ACBHD intends to award Services as Needed (SAN) contracts to Bidders who meet the Bidder Qualification Criteria (see Section I.C. below), for one or more of the following modalities:

· Residential Treatment

· Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

· Intensive Outpatient Services (IOP)

· Specialized ED Services

Bidders applying for Specialized ED services may propose new and emerging ED treatment modalities, pending ACBHD review and approval.

The County does not guarantee any minimum or maximum dollar amount or any awarded scope of services under this contract. ACBHD does not discriminate against particular Bidders that serve high-risk populations or specialize in conditions that require costly treatment.[footnoteRef:1] [1: To comply with 42 CFR § 438.214 as a Prepaid Inpatient Health Plan (PIHP).]

ACBHD reserves the right to end a contract if/when the awarded Contractor materially alters staff, deliverables, and outcomes any time after the contract award. The County is not obligated to award any contracts as a result of this RFPQ process. The County may, but is not obligated to, renew any awarded contract. Any renewal of an awarded contract shall be contingent on the availability of funds, awarded Contractor’s performance, and continued prioritization of the activities and priority populations as defined and determined by ACBHD.

B. BACKGROUND/SCOPE

As defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), EDs include Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder, and Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder. At least 30 million people of all ages, gender identifications, sexual orientations, and races/ethnicities suffer from an ED in the United States. Binge Eating Disorder is the most common eating disorder in the United States. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, the lifetime prevalence of Binge Eating Disorder in adults is 2.8%. Though less prevalent than Binge Eating Disorder, Anorexia Nervosa has the highest mortality rate of any mental illness. Common risk factors faced by people with EDs include social isolation, family conflict/instability, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, insomnia, self-harm, suicidal ideation, rapid weight loss, and long term medical and dental problems that can lead to medical complications and possibly death.

As a Mental Health Plan, ACBHD seeks to expand its pool of ED service providers in order to offer a variety of treatment models to clients. Clients who present with EDs are often resistant to treatment, and a single treatment model may not be the most appropriate or effective for each client. When clients participate in a treatment program that best meets their needs and presentation, this can prevent repeated cycling through services. By expanding the number of ACBHD contractors to provide higher levels of care for ED treatment services through a pool of contractors, ACBHD clients will have more options for appropriate treatment, based on each client’s need.

The priority population for these services is individuals suffering from the signs and symptoms of ED.

The awarded Contractors shall offer one or more of the following modalities:

· Residential treatment for youth and adults with ED as the primary diagnosis (24-hour programs);[footnoteRef:2] [2: Bidders must have a valid license (either California Department of Social Services Community Care Group Home or California Department of Public Health Congregate Living Facility, as appropriate) to be considered for a Residential treatment contract.]

· PHP with ED as the primary diagnosis for a minimum of six hours of treatment per day, available five to seven days per week;

· IOP with ED as the primary diagnosis for a minimum of three hours of treatment per day, available three to six days per week;

· Transitional Housing for clients participating in PHP or IOP if distance from the provider to the clients’ homes is prohibitive for participation in services; and

· Specialized ED services may include combinations of services such as multi-disciplinary team approaches, individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, monitoring by a licensed dietician, and medication support with a licensed prescriber/psychiatrist in an outpatient setting utilizing a multi-disciplinary approach via in person services or telehealth.

For in-person PHP and IOP, services must be provided within a 100-mile radius of Alameda County, and telehealth services must be provided by a practitioner licensed in California. If transitional housing is also available, services must be provided within California. Residential treatment services must be located in California.

The program model shall utilize Evidence Based Practices (EBPs) for treating EDs and shall offer individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy as part of the treatment. All programs shall offer monitoring by a licensed dietician and medication support with a licensed prescriber/psychiatrist. Licensed staff providing telehealth services must be licensed in California. PHP and Residential programs shall have access to medical staff. Providers must be willing to work with third-party primary care providers and other medical staff, in addition to ACBHD, in the discharge planning. The awarded Contractor(s) must possess valid licenses and a current fire clearance certificate.
